Hi, is Stranded name of the game licensed somehow?
I just found this and wanted to download it on Steam
It's also the same concept of the game.

store.steampowered.com /app/ 1470550/Stranded/

This might be Stranded 3 and DC secretly released it without telling us

This is like Stranded 0.5
I have a feeling whoever published this didn't ask user DC for permission to use the name and it'd be a huge coincidence if they weren't aware of the existence of the Stranded we know

(also, this is the first time in over 9 years where a thread is made on this part of the forum, gg :P)

@user medeiros: since DC doesnt own this name (S1 and S2 are fan projects not to be taken serious) basically everyone can make his own Stranded game, you too

There is even Stranded Deep... Stranded as its name is not under any trademark, so anybody can use it as StirlizZ said.

Point taken, however, just because someone can, doesn't mean they should; the reviews speak for themselves

Yes, the name is not protected and there's no licensing. Also they did not ask for permission and they also don't have to. It's important to note that none of Unreal Software's original Stranded games is currently on Steam.

There are more of these. Some more examples:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/295250/Stranded/ - also called "Stranded" but another genre
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1439070/Stranded_B/ - "Stranded B"
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1437170/Stranded_2/ - there's even a Stranded 2 which is just a text adventure

Just search for "Stranded" on Steam.
